Prepaid Card FAQs

How long does it take for the card to issue/refill?

It depends on the speed of the selected blockchain. If you choose Bitcoin, it could take between 15 and 45 minutes. For faster blockchains, no more than a few minutes. We ask users to leave a prudent amount of time before contacting us. The vast majority of support requests are due to not waiting for our system to register blockchain confirmations.

Why haven't I received my card details by email?

As mentioned above, it is often the case that you simply have to wait a few minutes. However, there are some other common causes:


1) CHECK YOUR SPAM FOLDER! Other than simply waiting a bit longer, the most common solution to support requests is to check in your Spam, Promotions or Newsletters folder.

2) Typo in the supplied email address.If you have written the email address incorrectly, the email cannot be delivered. You will need to submit a ticket in order for us to check.

3) You have unsubscribed from our emailsIn order to conform with anti-spam rules, it is possible to unsubscribe from all emails from FCF Pay. If you do this, you will not receive emails from the card issuing/refill system either. Contact us for assistance.

Load more funds.A particular merchant of payment service provider has blocked prepaid cards. This is out of our control, so you must find an alternative merchant. Do not be alarmed if the POS terminal states something such as "Potential Fraud". This is misleading and due to the confirguration of the terminal itself.The card has been flagged for potential fraud. Although this can seem alarming, it is likely that we can request that the bank unblocks the card.You are attempting to purchase what is known as a "quasi cash" item, which is not permitted for this kind of card.
